Early last year our 2001 Ford Expedition XLT started exhibiting some very unique problems during or after a rain. 1. upon initial turn on, gauges peak and then recede (persistent problem now). 2. windshield wipers quit working and then after some time begin working again. 3. ditto for the radio. 4. after parking the car after a rain or even quite a while later, the engine will attempt to start without a key in the ignition. This problem is random and will occur for quite some time after a rain. any time we park the vehicle in the garage we disconnect the enable wire to the start relay. *even with this action the battery is still being drained rather rapid for after just a few days of not driving, the battery shows obvious sign of fatigue when attempt to start the car.
After reading numerous similar articles in this complaint forum one can only surmise that our problem is related to the same source as most of the ones here. The windshield is leaking water, the gem is defective, the fuse box is corroded. Please advise as to what we can do in order to get Ford on this problem. Alecia Warner Robins GA
